Why do many college students choose to eat old age now?
Netizen one:
From a purely financial point of view, this is certainly true. In the face of rising housing prices, it is difficult for many young people to cover their own living expenses with their own income, let alone have enough money to make a down payment.
In order to give their children a better future, many parents do not want their children to carry a heavy house burden as soon as they work, so they choose to use their pension money to buy a house and a car for their children. Eating old age is not just a phenomenon unique to China. In those countries and regions with relatively high housing prices and prices, the proportion of gnawing the elderly will be even higher.
Netizen two:
The gnawing family is becoming more and more popular all over the world, which is definitely not in line with the current social concepts such as independence and self-reliance. However, in the face of the reality of high housing prices and the gradual solidification of social classes, even children, no matter how reluctant they are, have to bow to reality. What's more, China is a society that attaches great importance to the family. From which school their children choose to go to school, to what kind of jobs their children should choose, to their children's marriage and childbirth, parents will be involved in the whole process.
Because many things about a child are not only related to the child's future, but also to the parents' face and the honor of the entire family. The child’s salary is not enough for their own expenses, so parents of course subsidize the child. In the eyes of the parents, it doesn’t matter if they suffer a little, the child’s future career development is the key; the child can’t afford to buy a house or get married. Subsidies, because in the eyes of many parents, these are important life events, and they cannot delay their children's life because of themselves.
Netizen three:
Cheating on the old family is first and foremost the cause of social problems:
The reason for the emergence of gnawing old people is that there are relatively few jobs, and young people do not have sufficient employment opportunities. In today's era, it is undeniable that with the rapid economic development and the emergence of artificial intelligence, the employment situation is becoming increasingly severe. Many companies are in recession, leading to layoffs. The automation level of many positions has increased, and the number of employees is also being reduced. We are not providing adequate employment opportunities for young people.
The proportion of young people with real talents and real learning is very low, and young people lack competitiveness. Years ago, due to the expansion of college enrollment, the inevitable consequence was that many young people had a college diploma with low gold content, but in fact they did not have many real talents. If these new laborers do not hold so-called high-level diplomas, they may not have high job requirements for jobs. However, with university and college diplomas, how could they be willing to accept some low-paying positions and become ordinary workers? As a result, young people lack competitiveness, and employers get unsatisfactory people.
The second reason for gnawing the old family is the education problem:
Parents are too spoiled for their children and fail to properly educate their children to endure hardships, resulting in their children being the elders. In the process of children's growth, it is undeniable that many parents do not have a clear understanding. They dote on their children too much since childhood and let them grow up in a honeypot. How can such children have an advantage in employment and how can they endure hardship?
Parents are too accommodating to their children and do not invest in their children's education, resulting in children's lack of competitiveness. The growth of the child requires the input of the parents. During the child's growth, the parents do not attach great importance to it. As a result, the child has not learned the true talents and practical learning in the learning stage. Therefore, it lacks competitiveness in the employment process and can only be eliminated.
